Social Justice Fund NW- Sponsorship Grant

The Social Justice Fund NW offers sponsorships to grassroots organizations in ID, MT, OR, WA, and WY, encouraging innovative projects often overlooked by traditional funders. Applicants must comply with specific requirements, including being within the designated region and ensuring events are accessible to the public. This initiative supports community-led efforts, particularly those led by Black, Indigenous, and people of color, fostering connections and amplifying collective action through diverse events.

NOTE: Must be a recent/current grantee of SJF (within the past two years) to apply. Please apply for sponsorship two to three months in advance of your event date
At Social Justice Fund NW, we utilize sponsorships as a way of building bridges. We hope that organizations utilize this resource to fund their most ambitious, innovative projects that are often not supported by other funders. If you are not currently an SJF grantee or haven’t received a grant from us in over 5 years, sponsorship is a great way to get more connected to the organization.
Sponsorships are available to grassroots organizations based in ID, MT, OR, WA, and WY. If you do not have 501c3 or 501c4 status, you will need a fiscal sponsor.
